Klee Poems

Australis Dreaming - As seen Through Fish Magic by Paul Klee

Before you came
I spoke through rivers
and trees, the flat plains
spilling distance out to where
the world was a mirage
and time shimmered dreamlike
plunging downwards 
into a vast inner sea.
Fish swam where now rocky
outcrops rise above the red earth
and exotic lifeforms floated
silently through a celestial dark. 
All was an ocean of dream,
creations womb where earth,
sky and water were

Prolific artist Paul Klee
loved both art&poetry

CREATIVISTA klee matisse

 Klee set the art world free
in his Once emerged from the grey of night' poetry


Unifying colour & words
An idea never previously heard
An experimental start
With his posey picture art-

Matisse
   brushed
no more..
                scissors
                paper
                glue
the
          colour
          cut-outs
 littered
the floor
     with
         shapes
              anew
so blue

so blue
 of
    osmosis mode
maquettes
   & abstracts
shapely
but
    stark



Once emerged from the grey of night.

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry

A Stroll with Paul Klee

To pick up a line and take it for a stroll.
The essential is within, the mystics say,
but equally important is the outside:
a stunning summer sky, two wind-whipped clouds,
in the intense green background a dazzling yellow field.

The line crosses dead centre. To draw breath for surfaces,
smooth and cross-hatched: first impressions of place.
A distant rumbling. Scene changed

Fleas Chickadees Chimpanzee and Mr Paul Klee

In magnificent memory of Vee See’s zaniest chimpanzee
Probably discussed by merry monkey’s chipping chickadee
Readily and aptly apparent by three who seldom agree
Incredibly supping with Mamie, Marjorie and Mr. Paul Klee

Please pass the honey and the light brie said brazen bumblebee.
No one capably eats brie with lemon tea said a flickering flea.
Advice is free but listen,
